Centro-median Thalamotomy: A Therapeutic Approach for Phantom Limb Pain
Author(s): Linlin Tomar*
Phantom Limb Pain (PLP) continues to present a challenging scenario for both patients and clinicians, necessitating novel approaches for effective
relief. Centro-Median Thalamotomy, involving targeted lesioning of the Centro-Median Nucleus (CMN) within the thalamus, emerges as a potential
therapeutic avenue. This study explores the feasibility and efficacy of Centro-Median Thalamotomy in mitigating PLP, drawing upon clinical
observations and neurophysiological insights. Our findings contribute to the evolving discourse on neurosurgical interventions for chronic pain and
may pave the way for tailored approaches in the management of Phantom Limb Pain... Read More»
